We've planted herbs, brought in house plants,
and geared up for spring arrangements,
which is all fine and lovely until something
starts to wither. That's where expert
advice comes in handy, so we enlisted Tara
Heibel, author of Rooted in Design and
owner of Sprout Home, to help us plan for
the worst—and reverse it.
.
As with all living things, even the hardiest
plants require care, and strategies can vary
quite a bit. As a new plant parent you have
to get to know your plant: how tough it is
or isn't, how much water it really craves,
and if it prefers classical music or perhaps
an 80s throwback (or maybe that's just me
wondering). A plant will go through various
cycles and change shape and form as it grows
with you, and sometimes those cycles might
look like the end of the line. But if you
pay attention, you might be able to pick up
on some tell-tale signals that your plant is
sending you before it's too late.
.
When you first bring a plant home, make sure
you understand what it needs in the way of
light, water, soil, and other conditions, so
that you can provide it the best possible
imitation of its natural environment. Then,
learn how to read its signals: A plant can go
through stress for a multitude of reasons
(most of which you have some control over) and
it will normally let you know via its leaves.
Dropping and/or changing color of leaves is one
of the biggest signs that your plant is in
stress. When you notice a change of this kind,
however, don't freak out and overcompensate.
Take a moment to analyze the scenario and react
accordingly.
